Yes, that and the other postings helped:

My simple program now looks like:

#include<kapplication.h>
#include<kabc/stdaddressbook.h>

#include<iostream>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
    KApplication a( argc, argv , "test");
	
	KABC::AddressBook *ab = KABC::StdAddressBook::self();
	
	KABC::Ticket *ticket = ab->requestSaveTicket();
	
	if ( ticket ) {
		KABC::AddressBook::Iterator it;
		for ( it = ab->begin(); it != ab->end(); ++it ) {
			
			std::cout << it->realName() << std::endl;
			// do some other stuff
		}
		
		ab->save( ticket);
	}
}

It compiles and links with:
 
g++  -I/usr/include/kde  -I/usr/include/qt3 -L/usr/lib/kde -L/usr/lib/qt3/lib -lkdecore -lkdepim -lqt-mt -g -o 
kabc_test kabc_test.cpp

and it runs

thanks
Christoph
